10 Artist's You're Not Listening To, But Should Be By Joie  [73 more lists]

One of the best singer/songwriters of this generation. If you like Paul Simon, James Taylor, Dave Mathews and the like, then do yourself a favor and download some David Mead albums.

One of the most important, yet unknown artists of the 20th Century. There's a reason why Paul McCartney signed him to Capital Records, he recorded albums at George Martin's studios in London, and the Pixies named one of their albums after him. He was also the one who converted Bob Dylan to Christianity in the late 60's. An American Icon.

Do you like Polka? I thought not, but you'll love The Brave Combo. They're fresh, fun and ridiculous musicians. They've won multiple Grammy's and they've even been on The Simpsons!

This group is a diamond in the ruff and hardly anyone knows about these guys, but if you like Radiohead, you will love The Listening.

This is the guy who sang "I am a Man of Constant Sorrow" on "O Brother Where Art Thou". His group played with Allison Krauss for years and then he went solo.
